This is a new YouTube Channel for me, but I love the simple words and the new arrangement to John Newton’s beautiful hymn.
Truly, today may we put aside the cares of this world and remember “How Sweet the Name.”

You are my Glory and my Hope
Perfect in all Your ways
You are the One in Whom I rest
You are my Hope and Stay
You are my Wisdom and my Rock
The Blesser of my soul
The Hearer of my painful cries
You’re holy and faithful
You are the One in whom I trust
The Strength’ner of my heart
You are my Shield and Protection
You’ll never more depart
You uphold all your righteous ones
You are my Hiding Place
You are the One Who gives me food
My Light, my Truth, my Grace
You are Alpha and Omega
You are the First and Last
When You come back to take me home
My sin will all be past.
Words by Violet Escalera – January 2017
(Can be sung to the tune of Amazing Grace)
‎Dear God, I confess that I am not what I should be. I am not what I want to be. I am not what I will be, but by your grace I am what I am, and that I am not what I once was!
John Newton
